Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

This was a horrible experience
This doctor walked in the room without introducing herself, she spoke to my wife in a rude manner, and she had horrible bedside manner. Avoid her if you can, that was a horrible experience that no one seeking medical treatment should have to endure.

Have seen her for years A+ doctor!
I have seen Dr. Hinrichs, formerly Dr. Davis, for years. She's patient, kind and thorough. She's always helped connect me to resources to make sure I'm getting the best care possible. I highly recommend her!

Good listener, very caring, and I never feel rushed. Her assistants and nurses are excellent, too, responding quickly and answering questions.

Please do better
As a patient, I felt belittled and disrespected. No introduction, no true patient verification ( just “so your —-?”). No eye contact throughout the visit. She conducted the entirety of the appointment in a rushed and discourteous manner. Some the oldest reviews are years old, making it very hard to understand why the healthcare facilities that employ her, would let this kind of unacceptable behavior fester. It’s out of control. May grace and mercy be onto you.

Dr. Hinrich, Arrogant, doesn't explain anything
She was supposed to order a simple blood test that I needed for nursing school. She refused to do it saying it had to be exactly 8 weeks, that over 7 weeks was not good enough which every health care professional disagrees with her. She told me that the titer was not required for nursing school then she said she refused to do it unless I could get a note from the nursing faculty that I needed it. She kept changing her story because she was furious that I questioned her. I never leave negative reviews, but her conduct was the worst I have ever seen. I would never go back to see her ever.

Won’t see here again. Bad manners.
She rushed me, what was VERY uncomfortable to me. She has bad manners, I needed to go through delicate things about my life, and she didn’t seem to be understanding at all. Won’t recommend her,

She was not particularly friendly and seemed to be judging my answers to her routine questions. She was very direct but had a rude bedside manner. I don’t think I’ll be returning to her.

Absolutely terrible. I definitely do not recommend. First, the "check in" staff at her office asked that I sign various documents without first telling me what I was signing. When I asked what I was signing and if I could see the documents, they just said "HIPPA stuff" without actually giving me the HIPPA sheet as they are required to do by law. Second, she lacked empathy - completely ignoring some of my symptoms. When she did ask questions, they weren't related to my medical treatment, they were personal questions that had nothing to do with my health. She was also rude and disrespectful, and appeared annoyed when I asked her questions about my health. Avoid at all costs, she is just looking to spend 15 minutes with you and bill the insurance the most she can for cost.

Bedside manner is terrible. I'm not someone who cares much about bedside manner as long as my ailments are treated, but for those who do care, she'll talk to you with contempt and try to rush you away. What I do care about is competency and ability to medically help someone with medical problems. She has not shown me any level of aptitude. She's less helpful than the internet in diagnosing issues, but at least she has the authority to order labs and scans.
